Da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da

I don't wanna grow old, I don't wanna be square

What if I'm a bad role model, what if I'm scared?

I don't think I could live up to the mother that my mother was

If I always just feel so unprepared

I might be too weak to fall in love

And I might be too much for everyone

All these explosive emotions I'm holdin'

But you'll never know 'em, 'cause I put 'em in a box in the ocean

All these explosive emotions I'm holdin'

But you'll never know 'em, 'cause I put 'em in a box in the ocean

Yeah, I put 'em in a box in the ocean

Da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da (ah)

What if they forget about all I've done?

If I built it up just to be no one

I make my own expectations for every single situation

Then break my own heart when it all falls

I might be too weak to fall in love

And I might be too much for everyone

All these explosive emotions I'm holdin'

But you'll never know 'em, 'cause I put 'em in a box in the ocean

All these explosive emotions I'm holdin'

But you'll never know 'em, 'cause I put 'em in a box in the ocean

Yeah, I put 'em in a box in the ocean (ah)

Da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da

Things you'll never hear me say

Lock 'em up to keep them safe

Forget 'em, let 'em float away

Things you'll never hear me say

Lock 'em up to keep them safe

Forget 'em, let 'em float away

Let 'em float away

All these explosive emotions I'm holdin'

But you'll never know 'em, 'cause I put 'em in a box in the ocean

All these explosive emotions I'm holdin'

But you'll never know 'em, 'cause I put 'em in a box in the ocean

Yeah, I put 'em in a box in the ocean

Da-da-da-da-da (ah)

Yeah, I put 'em in a box in the ocean
